Circumstances of Disappearance McCray was last seen entering a wooded area at Highway 521 North and Ellerbe Road in Rembert at 16.00 on December 27, 1999, to collect some pottery clay. He had been driven there by a friend who waited for him in the car, together with her two children. The friend waited for two hours before assuming McCray had left the wood through another location.

Two days later a massive search was launched, with no results.

Foul play is suspected.
